One fateful February evening in 2013 the scientist and revered personality Bill Nye traveled to Kentucky to debate Ken Ham, the CEO and founder of Answers in Genesis, on the viability of The Creation Theory. That was one year ago. As you’ll learn in this episode, this debate was instrumental in the founding of this podcast. Anthony and Chad have wanted to discuss and breakdown this debate for a long time. This episode is the culmination of tons of research and work about Creation and this debate specifically. Please join us while we break down, critique and discuss the debate between these two titans of their respective worldviews.

Here is another Heathen Hodgepodge entry, where anything is game for discussion. We typically bring up news, articles and happenings in the world of religion and secularism. In this episode, Matt vents about and criticizes the internet’s favorite proselytizer, Josh Feuerstein after he selfishly tried to make a dying woman feel bad. Then, Anthony tears into Ben Affleck (Batfleck) for his idiotic tantrum on “Real Time with Bill Maher.”

In this episode we are launching a new type of episode called “At the Movies.” With this format we will be watching a feature film that thematically fits with the content of this podcast. Not every movie will be blatantly religious or secular, but it might hit some marks that are relevant to what we want to do with The Secular Perspective.

We would also like to invite the audience to suggest movies that would make for a good discussion. Feel free to send those suggestions and recommendations through the proper channels.

Are our public schools really secular? Is it illegal to pray in school? Of course not. Listen as Anthony breaks down the silly notion that prayer and God are absent from America’s public schools; and why he’s okay with that.

This episode consists of Anthony answering questions from a link that was sent to him. The link was an article from Buzzfeed.com of a series of pictures. The pictures were questions and comments that had been written down by attendants of the debate on Creationism between Bill Nye and Ken Ham on February 4th, 2014. Anthony is presenting these answers from the perspective of a layman.
